Just a comment, not quite related to the topic, but rather to the
driver-related part of it. About a month ago I bought a 1TB USB 3.0
external drive, primarily so I could back up and then reformat my four
internal drives and rebuild them from scratch (not restore them). The boot
drive was running Windows 7 Ultimate. So once everything was backed up, I
reformatted the drives and reinstalled Win7 Ultimate and various essentials
such as Office 2007, NoteTab, xPlorer2 and a couple of other things I can't
live without. Then I did a regular backup of that so if ever I needed to, I
could restore my essential setup very quickly. Anyway, that's not the
point. The point is that somehow, some way, after rebuilding the boot
drive, my sound card failed to work. After much investigation, Google
searches, etc., I discovered that its driver had gone missing. How, I have
no idea. Anyway, I was about to go buy a replacement when I finally learned
that the driver was missing. I downloaded it and presto, the card was back
in business! Lucky day for me.
